  • Athletic Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony Friday, October 10, 2014 a Message from the Athletic Director
    ATHLETIC HALL OF FAME INDUCTION CEREMONY FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10, 2014 A MESSAGE FROM THE ATHLETIC DIRECTOR Dear Friends, As I proudly approach my seventh year as Drew’s athletic director, I am still amazed by the legacies left behind by the athletes, administrators and teams that came before me. The Athletics Hall of Fame induction process, which culminates in tonight’s event, remains an incredible opportunity for me to become even more deeply rooted in Drew’s athletic history. At tonight’s 2014 Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, Rangers past and present gather to honor four individuals and one legendary team who have contributed so much to Drew’s athletic legacy: swimmer Timothy Lawlor C’99, soccer player Justin Bonura C’03, field hockey and lacrosse player Kara Fetter Carola C’04, former Director of Athletics Connee Zotos, and the legendary 1969 Men’s Soccer team. Through this ceremony we also pay tribute to the important role athletics plays in a true liberal arts education. Students’ academic and athletic experiences at Drew enrich and inform each other. The opportunity for student-athletes to practice self-discipline, teamwork, and the development of the body while they pursue rigorous academic study and the development of the mind epitomizes all that is good about Division III athletics. I do not exaggerate when I say that Drew student-athletes, past and present, are academic and athletic powerhouses, which is a continual source of pride and excitement to me. The talent and sustained effort of Drew’s student-athletes brings distinction to them and to their alma mater, which lasts far beyond their graduation.
